THOMAS TEMPLE WITH TWO UNKNOWN WOMEN AT MISSION SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO
Color: Black; White
A black and white photograph of Thomas Temple with two unknown women at Mission San Juan Capistrano, ca. 1920s. The three sit at the center on the wall of a fountain. Temple sits at the middle with his right arm on the left leg which is crossed over the right. He has a hat on his left knee and wears a tie, jacket, striped trousers, and boots. The woman at the left wears a wide-brim hat, dark three-piece dress, hose, and heels. She has both hands on a purse which is on her lap. The woman at the right wears dark-colored clothing which includes a hat, jacket, and long dress. She leans slightly to the left and holds a handbag in her left hand. All three look and smile at the camera. Behind them is the round center-piece of the fountain which has many designs. At the left of the background are trees, and to the right is the mission. The structure has an arcade along the front of the bottom and a second floor at the left, but only one at the right. The second floor is lined with many windows and the roof has ceramic shingles. At the left of the back is a stamp that reads, "ANDERSON / Photo Service / EL MONTE." At the bottom right corner is the number, "2." The photograph was housed in Agnes Temple's album which is item 96.7.94.1 along with many other photographs which span 96.7.1.1-.93.1. Contact sheets 2000.159.1.1-.8 show the original positioning of the images within the album. With stains and half of a mounting corner adhered to the bottom left corner, the artifact is in fair condition.
